1.) Where were you?
I along with my little cousin was at my aunts house in Krotz Springs.

2.) How did you react?
Well as nervous as I was the whole game, I watched the entire game standing in tha kitchen. As soon as Porter caught the interception, I started jumping up an down and was hollering. After he crossed the goal line, my cousin, aunt, and I had a group hug in the kitchen along with all three of us jumping and hollering in unison. Soon after this my aunt tripped over a chair an dislocated her elbow and popper her shoulder out of place, and although she was in pain, she chose not to go to tha hospital until it was over. Will NEVER forget the night!

I balled like a baby, and was just sitting there at this bar in disbelief. It was so surreal to me. Still is.

Verizon was down too. Same situation as after the NFC Championship Game. If you wanted to make a phone call to or from NOLA, you were screwed.

Was sitting down with the family. I had headphones on, tuned to the radio call of the game. It was maybe a second ahead of the game on TV, but it worked nicely. Anyway, I remember knowing an instant before everyone else that he intercepted, all I remember was flinging my headphones across the room and watching everyone else go crazy. Not sure what I did after that

I think we counted 62 people in my house, I was upstairs in the media room, with probably half or so. When Porter intercepted, most of us must have jumped, because I now have a crack in my ceiling downstairs, and several nail heads are showing through. After the inital excitement, I hugged by long-time Saints buddy, and I sat down and cried, for a few minutes. I then walked outside to get some air, when I heard all heck breaking loose around the corner, where I have some neighbors from new Orleans. They had kazoos, and unberellas, and were doing a parade around the street(it makes a loop). I took off running to join in, and we made the circle, coming back towards my house, when I saw a shadow running towards us, and wipe out. It was my intoxicated wife! She broke 3 teeth, her rh wrist, and separated her shoulder. Being the dedicated coon-arse she is, she finished the parade first, before seeking medical attention.

I was in one of the Mango Daiquiri shops on Bourbon(although not the one in the famous youtube reaction video) and when Porter picked it off the place went nuts. After he scored, everyone in there had about 5 different flavors of Daiquiri on them

Also, my 8 year old son was crying, he was so happy. I told him about how I cried when I was 9 and Mike Lansford kicked a FG in the Dome to lead the Rams over the Saints in 1983 to keep us out of the playoffs. It was awesome to see him cry at almost the same age for the opposite reason. I tried calling back home to South Mississippi and I couldn't get through. I couldn't get through to my family in New Orleans either.

What a night.

Amazing how this event connected us all together. It is good to think about this the weekend of the anniversary of Katrina, too. Lots of memories from that week as well, but I like thinking about the Saints more.

1. Where were you?
I was at the game in the corner Saints end zone, upper deck.

2. How did you react?
I was jumping up and down screaming. I couldn't even hear myself scream because the stadium was so loud. Then, I hugged my uncle next to me and started hugging random Saints fans sitting around us. Then right after the extra point, I sat back down in my seat in disbelief trying my hardest not to cry while the Second Line song was playing over the PA.
